SUMMARY:Talk and Reception: Professor Salamishah Tillet
DESCRIPTION:When: January 10\, 4 pm \nWhere: UCLA Royce Hall 314 \nProfessor Salamishah Tillet Pulitzer Prize-winning contributing critic-at-large at The New York Times: \n“‘Rather Than Her Biography’: Listening to Nina Simone’s Diary”\n“If we can draw out the emphasis on the female vocalist’s art\, rather than her biographies” critic Hortense Spillers once wrote. “Then we gather from the singer that power and control maintain an ontological edge. Whatever luck or misfortune the Player has dealt her\, she is\, in the moment of performance\, the primary subject of her own invention” Considering Spillers’s provocative claim\, Professor Salamishah Tillet will look at Civil Rights musician Nina Simone’s diary (and her friendship with the writer Lorraine Hansberry) and discuss the tensions and possibilities that arise as she writes about Simone’s inner life\, while also exploring Simone’s ongoing intellectual influence on American culture. \nRSVP here.\nAbout\nSalamishah Tillet is the Henry Rutgers Professor of Africana Studies and Creative Writing at Rutgers University\, Newark\, and the 2022 Pulitzer Prize-winning contributing critic-at-large at The New York Times. She is the director of Express Newark\, a center for socially engaged art and design art at Rutgers\, and the author of Sites of Slavery: Citizenship and Racial Democracy in the Post-Civil Rights Imagination and\, most recently\, In Search of the Color Purple: The Story of an American Masterpiece. \nCosponsors\nThis event is co-sponsored by Center for the Study of Women|Streisand Center\, the divisions of Humanities\, Social Sciences\, The Herb Alpert School of Music\, The Center for Musical Humanities\, and The UCLA Bixby Center on Population and Reproductive Health.

SUMMARY:Reconsidering Music\, Technology\, and Gender: A Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by UCLA Center for Musical Humanities and Center for the Study of Women|Barbara Streisand Center. \nWhen: January 27\, 2024\nWhere: Lani Hall\, Schoenberg Music Building\, UCLA \nConference Description\nThe ways sounding technologies contribute to the articulation of musical lives and social selves has been a growing area of scholarly interest over the past several decades. Considerations of music technologies’ and tools’ material affordances\, attendant social practices\, cultural codings\, and political ecologies have been taken up by scholars in musicology\, gender studies\, media studies\, science and technology studies\, and beyond. Reconsidering Music\, Technology\, and Gender is a one-day symposium that seeks to revisit the many ways in which musicians and listeners utilize technology (through various plug-ins and softwares\, the internet\, hardwares\, instruments\, and platforms) to create\, challenge\, subvert\, and affirm. This symposium calls for renewed and new perspectives on the intersections of music\, technology\, and gender\, enlivened attention to contemporary contexts and practices of music making\, and un- or under-told counter-histories of celebrations and governances of gender in musical life. We welcome proposals that engage the three terms\, but need not otherwise be limited vis-à-vis genre\, geography\, sound\, social milieu\, or disciplinary methodology. Scholars and practitioners are invited to present in a variety of formats\, including but not limited to: conference-style papers\, panels\, musical performances\, and production demonstrations. \nCall for Papers: Submission Guidelines\nPlease submit an abstract (no more than 250 words) of your proposal using the google form linked below.\nPresentations will each be 15 minutes. Panels/roundtables should incorporate 3-4 presenters and last 45\nminutes. The deadline for submissions is November 1\, 2023. Participants will be notified by November 15\,\n2023. If you have questions\, please email Catherine Provenzano or Lily Shababi. \nSubmit Proposal \nView flier \nContact\nCatherine Provenzano (cprovenzano@schoolofmusic.ucla.edu)\nLily Shababi (lilyshababi@ucla.edu) \nThis symposium is presented by the UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music in collaboration with the Center for the Musical Humanities and co-organizers Catherine Provenzano and Lily Shababi.

SUMMARY:Unsettling Landscape: Experimental Films by Southeast Asian Women Filmmakers
DESCRIPTION:When: January 27\, 2024\, 7:30 pm \nWhere: Billy Wilder Theater \nIn-person: Q&A with filmmakers and UCLA Associate Professor Jasmine Nadua Trice. \nAdmission is free. No advance reservations. Your seat will be assigned to you when you pick up your ticket at the box office. Seats are assigned on a first come\, first served basis. The box office opens one hour before the event. \nShowcasing a collection of recent experimental works by Southeast Asian women filmmakers\, Unsettling Landscape focuses on short films and videos that critically engage with questions of land\, landscape and the myriad forms of mediation that have been used to capture their image. Like painting and the diorama\, the camera has been a tool of colonial authority\, historical narrative\, and scientific knowledge production\, laying the groundwork for unfettered development projects and extractive capitalism. Capturing an image of land through mediation can be an act of complicity\, binding it and rendering it legible as scenery\, property and territory. Reflexively engaging with such practices of mediation\, these works suggest that the moving image also allows space for refusal. Unearthing the deep time of tectonic shifts and Animist belief systems\, unraveling statist development narratives and unlearning colonial ways of knowing\, these films unsettle the complex relations between lens and land\, offering new possibilities for spatial transformation on screen. \nSeries programmed by CSWAC member and Associate Professor Jasmine Nadua Trice\, UCLA Cinema and Media Studies. \nRelated Media\n\nView PDF of the flier.\nSee Upcoming Events in this Series\nRead Jasmine Trice’s blog post “Unsettling Landscape: Exploring Southeast Asian Women Filmmakers’ Visionary Perspectives.“

SUMMARY:Film Screening: Fenomenal\, Rompeforma 1989-1996
DESCRIPTION:Presented by the UCLA Department of World Arts and Cultures/Dance \nWhere: Kaufman 200\, 120 Westwood Plaza \nWhen: Monday\, January 29\, 2024\, 2:30-5 pm \nFree and open to the public. \nJoin the UCLA Department of World Arts and Cultures/Dance for a film screening of Fenomenal\, Rompeforma 1989-1996\, followed by a Q&A with the filmmakers Merián Soto and Viveca Vázquez. \nFenomenal\, Rompeforma 1989-1996 is a documentary about Rompeforma:Marató n de Baile\, Performance & Visuales\, the experimental Latinx dance andperformance festival that took place in Puerto Rico from 1989-1996.\nFenomenal\, Rompeforma 1989-1996 features dozens of performances and commentary by many current leaders of the field\, and some who have sadly passed. The film intends to inspire younger generations of Latinx artists and cultural activists by providing evidence of the rich creative and artistic contributions of Latinx to the American avant-garde. \nFenomenal preserves\, and makes available\, the repertoire of a generation ofLatinx experimental dance\, performance\, and curation often overlooked and/or forgotten by historians\, scholars\, and practitioners in the field\, to confront the elusive amnesia and appropriation by mainstream players\, with respect to the(unexpected) work of Latinx experimental dance and performance artists. \nView flier.
